Spiral bound notebooks, like the ones with the big spiral on the top, common in sketch books, is a huge pain in the ass trying to draw all the way to the edge of the paper.

My hand always ends up bumping the spiral and jolting my lines >:(

Dear application developers, please please please stop throwing garbage into ~ we have .cache/.config/.local for a good reason, I don't need your garbage polluting my home directory making things a huge pain, thanks.

So, it seems like IDC68 for internal SCSI connections was a common thing?

But as far as I can tell only the IDC50 header was ever actually standardized for internal unshielded connections (believe me, I check)

I wonder if they took the existing external HD68 or VHDCI68 pinouts and just used those, i've not checked that bit, but I suspect they did.

I fixed my cohost bot, logicbot to allow for more than one output and also fixed the bug that was causing the netlists to be reduced to pure AOI netlists, so now we have things like muxes, and XOR gates and all that good stuff,

Okay okay, so this made Lina grimace when I was joking about it, but.

So, you know how you can't really do a live update into a fully new kernel, because the structure and memory layout changes, but.

What if we first setup a lookaside buffer that we could /serialize/ the internal kernel structures into and write a small replacement stub.

Who doesn't love to wiggle internal bits of things that you really shouldn't be touching :v

I want you all to observe the galaxy brain that is this cable connection on the Keysight/Agilent 82357B

The inside of the 82347B, showing the connector being just a captive mini-usb B connector plugging into a slot on the board and held in by the injection molded casing.

Debating if it would be worth the trouble to put Squishy through OSHW certification or not, hmm.

deeply embedded firmware always makes me kinda itchy,

Like, do /you/ know what the small ARM core buried deep inside your GPU die running firmware off a baked in mask-rom is /actually/ doing?

Or what about the small core inside your HDD or SSD?

Yeah, makes me itchy,

To the person on ebay selling the old acoustic coupler for 1K USD and saying it's "RARE!", you're part of the problem,
